Alquist 3D Founder and Chairman Zachary Mannheimer leading international effort to tackle housing crisis and establish best practices in 3D printing construction technology

GREELEY, Colo., Nov. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- From Arkansas to Georgia to Washington, D.C., Alquist 3D Founder and Chairman Zachary Mannheimer has been calling for advancement in the housing and construction industry in speeches at a variety of high-profile events. The nationwide housing shortage is holding the U.S. back, says Mannheimer, and it's time for technology to help accelerate the supply of homes.

Mannheimer notes that the cost of construction remains on the rise, finding qualified and skilled labor is becoming increasingly difficult, and more Americans are finding themselves in precarious and sometimes desperate situations without the quality housing they need. His solution: Turn to 3D printing construction technology.

Mannheimer has spent the past several weeks on the road talking with leaders in technology, workforce development and manufacturing, inspiring audiences to see the urgent need for more homes and the promising potential of 3D printing construction.

Washington, D.C.: As keynote speaker at the ASTM International Conference on Advanced Manufacturing, Mannheimer spoke on "Rebuilding the American Dream: 3D Printed Homes." He spotlighted the housing shortage and the pivotal role Alquist 3D can play in not only building more homes but significantly reducing costs. Mannheimer explained that 3D printing homes can cut construction costs by 15% to 20% per structure while generating far less waste than stick-built homes. The result, he said, represents a significant boost in sustainability and a vital reduction in the home-building industry's carbon footprint.

Arkansas: Solving the housing crisis will take more than new building alternatives, Mannheimer told the 2,000+ technology leaders in a variety of fields from around the world gathered for the Northwest Arkansas Council's Technology Summit. It will also take new regulations and innovations in best practices. Homebuilding techniques have gone largely unchanged over the past century, yet homes are more expensive than ever. Applauding the Council's housing initiative, Mannheimer said 3D printing, modular housing and other technologies could finally change the game and give the region a way to house its booming population affordably. He stressed that because 3D printing is an emerging technology, organizations like the Council should take a leadership role in establishing best practices to ensure consistency. For its part, the Council urged attendees to step up and "disrupt" housing.

Georgia: As a featured speaker at the TECH TALKS Leadership Conference of the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG), Mannheimer outlined the steps Alquist 3D is taking to proactively identify and train individuals to work in the 3D printing trade, which will help use of 3D construction printing expand throughout the U.S. He highlighted Alquist 3D's training and workforce development partnership with Aims Community College in Greeley, Colorado, as an example, and invited TCSG to embrace a similar collaboration with Alquist 3D.
